A below the radar show here, with a great Peggy-O and a standout sequence from Dancin' to the end:

Interesting claim in one of the comments:

"Just a quick point of interest I had forgotten about: during Drums I managed to get to a vantage point where I could see backstage, and I caught a glimpse of Bobby and Phil goofing around. Bobby was holding a metal folding chair up to a micrphone while Phil wailed on it with drumsticks. So whenever I listen to this Drums I always try to pick out the sound of the chair!"

Gonna see if I can pick it out this time through.

Good call, Pyro.

My wife's people are Hokies so I've spent some time with this show and my inlaws—I like the show more.

It's a strange show for me because it does not have my top tier of songs, e.g., Black Peter instead of Wharf Rat, or, starting with a Promised Land, but I really like the versions of the songs played. And, this miller source seems a lot more spot on than the other source was: check out the cymbals in Promised Land. It's little things like that do it for me with this show.
